Between Two Lungs

Between Two Lungs Lyrics

Between two lungs it was released
The breath that carried me
The sigh that blew me forward

'Cause it was trapped between two lungs
It was trapped between two lungs
It was trapped between two lungs
It was trapped between two lungs

And my running feet could feel it fly
Each breath screaming, "We are all too young to die"

Between two lungs it was released,
the breath that passed from you to me
It flew between us as we slept
It slipped from your mouth into mine and crept.
Between two lungs it was released,
the breath that passed from you to me
It flew between us as we slept
It slipped from your mouth into mine and crept.

'Cause it was trapped between two lungs
It was trapped between two lungs

Gone! All the days of begging--the days of theft
No more gasping for a breath
The air has filled me head to toe
And I can see the ground far below
I have this breath and I hold it tight
And I keep it in my chest with all my might
I pray to God this breath will last
As it pushes past my lips.
As I gasp - Gasp!

Do you have Bryn Harold? Well then take off your shoes and chase her down, because I need that opera as a front of book idea. They're doing Boris Godunov this spring. Who doesn't love Tsars and Cossacks?
